Budda whadda shouldda didda, I thought we were talking about Trump
Whatever, seems like the Native American community (full disclosure, I am a card carrying Cherokee) in general has long fought for clemency on the grounds evidence was falsified in an environment of rampant judicial abuse towards indigenous people’s struggle for self determination. As Dr Oakley noted, President Biden didn’t give him a full pardon, but did recognize those fighting against injustice by letting him live what little is left of his life at home.
To be honest, serving five decades for a contested double murder charge when you don’t pose any further threat seems like Justice served. I do think the primary reason Wray strongly opposed his change in status is because to this day he maintains he did not kill the agents who died.
But that happened in the early 1970s, Trump’s blanket pardoning of hundreds of convicted violent criminals was just in the past few years and is, wait, was ongoing in our system.
People on the Right are so quick to jump on the smallest comment by a leftie they argue incites aggression towards police, I guess now if it’s in the name of MAGA, well, must be open season on first responders.
